p.3 #1 · Newbies or New to FM? Tips 4U

You know, Steady... I've been wanting to write some how-to pages as well, especially for things like airshow shooting. And it occurs to me that one of the ways we all could publicize that kind of resource is to put a link to it in our signatures. At the bottom of every post you make, after the "Steady" line, you could put a Newbie tips for Forums" link.

Just a thought.

Hi Rodolfo,

It is a good thought too. I will check into it.

Thanks for contributing to the "positive" thinking here in this forum and in this thread.

You have THIS "Newbie's" admiration.

Hi,

A morning BUMP so more newbies will see this.

In just the last 24 hours, I have seen about 8 different threads posted by Newbies that could really benefit from the Newbie Tips I am putting together. So...bear with me...the Tips are getting more extensive and edited to help more Newbies and New Comers to FM.

No DVD planned at all.

I don't have the time for that, or the desire to promote one.

But...thanks for the bump.

In the last few days I have gotten several nice PMs from people (newbies and lurkers) who have told me how they will soon be posting pics here. That is a good thing for everyone on the forum.

The "Tips on How to Better Enjoy the FM People Forum" page will be posted asap. I am still adding stuff to it to try to cover several points I see needed by recent posts.

I'm a newbie.

I love reading here - getting inspiration for photos, and reading the great feedback posted by many members. I especially love the feedback you provide to the photos. It's very helpful I'm sure to the OP, as well as those who love the hobby like I do.

+1 to Stickies. Every other forums I participate in uses them - this should be no exception.

Aw man, you beat me to it.

I was waiting until 3pm, thinking to time the bump before this fell off page 1.

I have just received some very nice PMs from some good folks who are new to FM.

I will send you all a PM with link asap.

In the meantime, thanks for joining in.

I am also seeing a few new names posting here too!

Keep it up. The new members and the new posters will give us all something new to see.

Thanks for the threat Sticky - as a relative newbie here myself I appreciate it. I've found the site to be inspiring and have gotten some good feedback on my few posts so far. I'm hoping to get a new camera in the next month and then I'm sure I'll have lots of posts! LoL

What is a "threat Sticky?"

No threats intended here!

It gave me an image of people in an office space (like the movie) being threatened with pads of post-its.....

I am assuming that was just a tipo...er...typo.
